Oh, ok. I missed that part, probably because at that time I was still struggling to comprehend what a "pcd" is :) Anyhow, I'll send out the patch series shortly, and then we can all decide whether that's something we're still interested in doing (I'm clearly not qualified to argue either way, but would be happy to implement whatever consensus we come up with) :) Thanks, --Gabriel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ edk2-devel mailing list edk2-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/edk2-devel
